Lucifer



The Lucifer (無尽剣：ルシフェル) is a sword-summoning apparatus which appears in Devil May Cry 4, and is obtained from Berial's Hell Gate, which it was used to power. It is a hellish weapon worn like a backpack, and is able to spawn a countless number of spectral swords to hover around it. These swords can be rearranged, thrown, or wielded, and will explode either after a short duration, or at a command from Dante. It is wielded by Dante during the game.

Background
Lucifer (lit. "Light Bearer" in Latin) is the title of a Babylonian king interpreted in Christian mythology to have been the name of Satan before his fall. Berial is sometimes considered to be his father or son.
